• _English summary:_ Lorenz B. Puntel presents a systematic philosophy that is understood as a theory of the most universal structures of the universe of discourse. It is based on two fundamental theses: firstly that all statements and all theories emerge only within theoretical frameworks, and secondly that the task of systematic philosophy is to articulate the dimension of structurality and then to put it into relation to a dimension of actuality, of being. The author explains the concept of the…Read more
  • _English summary:_ Of subject matters for philosophy, God is among the most obscure, complex, and ambiguous. Lorenz B. Puntel makes no attempt at an exhaustive treatment of it; he shows instead - especially in extensive opposition to Heidegger, whose works repeatedly present a deeply misleading but widely influential caricature of the metaphysical tradition - that the problem can be treated rationally and argumentatively - in a word, with theoretical rigor - within a comprehensive philosophical …Read more
  • _English summary:_ The critical essays on the history of philosophy and on contemporary philosophy reprinted in this volume, which were written and published over the course of many years, focus on the two central problems indicated by the terms subject matter and theoretical status, which appear in the volume's title. The essays reveal the background, in the history of philosophy, of the structural-systematic conception of philosophy Lorenz B. Puntel presents in his book _Struktur und Sein.. Ei…Read more

    Mit dem vorliegenden Werk schliesst Lorenz B. Puntel seine Seinstrilogie ab; die beiden vorherigen Bande sind unter dem Titel Struktur und Sein (2006) und Sein und Gott (2010) erschienen. Der neue Band fuhrt das in den anderen Banden nur inchoativ formulierte gesamtsystematische philosophische Programm aus. Lorenz B. Puntel betrachtet das Thema Sein und Nichts als das ursprungliche Thema der Philosophie und stellt daruber eine umfassende Theorie auf. Diese Theorie nennt er Seinstheorie; sie best…Read more

    O tema da pluralidade de correntes filosóficas sempre ocupou a filosofia desde seu início. Hoje ele tem uma atualidade extraordinária devido ao fato inegável de que a filosofia está presente em todos os países dotados de uma cultura e língua com caráter suprarregional. Com exceção de alguns exímios filósofos como Hegel e Heidegger, o tópico foi em geral ignorado e/ou é apenas parcial e inadequadamente abordado. O presente ensaio propõe-se elaborar as grandes linhas de uma tematização sistemática…Read more

    A Totalidade do Ser, o Absoluto e o tema "Deus": Um capítulo de uma nova Metafísica
    Revista Portuguesa de Filosofia 60 (2): 297-327. 2004.
    Propósito deste ensaio é apresentar uma nova abordagem ao velho problema que é o acesso filosófico ao Deus cristão. Isto acontece dentro do esquema de uma nova metafísica cujo ponto de partida é a capacidade que a mente tem de percepcionar a totalidade do ser, facto este que o artigo apresenta como sendo justamente uma estrutura central do intelecto. Dado que as distinções entre intelecto e mundo, conceitos e realidade, sujeito e objecto, etc., já pressupõem a totalidade do ser dada perceptivame…Read more

    I have frequently mentioned objective problems and topics in the preceding sections. But what exactly is the force of ‘objective’ here? As my remarks should have made clear I have been using ‘objective’ to contrast with ‘purely historical’. A ‘purely historical’ approach never gets beyond reproduction, commentary, and interpretation. I call an approach ‘objective’ when it involves a philosopher who advances his own theses and claims. This minimal understanding of ‘objectivity’ (in the context of…Read more

    How Can the Grand Metaphysical Questions of the (Christian-)Metaphysical Tradition Be Re-thought Today?
    Proceedings of the American Catholic Philosophical Association 78 83-91. 2004.
    The necessary task for philosophy is the development of a metaphysical ontology, i.e., a philosophical theory of everything. The urgency of this task is apparentin, for example, the weakness of proofs for the existence of God. When such “proofs” are not rooted in a comprehensive metaphysical ontology, the principlesapplied, as well as the “God” whose existence has supposedly been proven, are unintelligible. Thus, the explication of Being, from within an adequately articulated framework, should b…Read more
